Booting fails with nforce driver

[ekdahl]

Just tried the nforce network driver and booting fails. I've attached a couple of pictures showing the output.

Image is built with gcc 4 and I have this motherboard: ​http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=257 (nForce 430 Chipset)

Mine KDLs as well, with an ASUS A8N-SLI motherboard (nForce4). Working on getting a good shot of the trace now.

Thanks! In ekdahl's back trace, the important lines were missing, but anevilyak's were very useful. Should be fixed in hrev23135, please retry.

It works fine now! I successfully pinged google.com. Thank you!

Works here as well, though sockets do seem to sometimes go dead after a while, i.e. my first try at wgetting Firefox from bebits went dead around 70% and Vision's network threads randomly go dead as well, but...it boots, DHCPs, etc.

Incidentally, this doesn't seem to kill networking as a whole, a new app started still manages to successfully create and use connections.

Thanks for the update! The network problems are most likely problems of the stack itself, and not network driver related. I've seen similar problems with various drivers over here (they just happen to disappear when I try to find out why :-)).
